This was somewhat tough. I've been keen on the Python Officer for the last few months. The Python Viper is also an old favorite. But, I had to go with Relampago. The mold is distinctive enough in those colors that it doesn't seem like just a Ripcord repaint to me. Plus, the sniper rifle gave him some characterization in my collection that made him relevant. Gatilho is close as that's a solid figure, too. But, I still see Airborne when I look at him, so Relampago wins. |

Gatilho and Relampago are two of my favorite International figures, but I went with what is probably the least popular army builder from the list: SAW Viper. I love the gold and the fact that the arrow on the head is painted |

I picked Major Bludd. I think that is a dam fine figure. Good use of that head and the sonic fighter zap body. Plus of all the PP camo schemes I like the red on black the best. Relampago comes in second. Forget that he's an international figure using the mold of a pretty popular Joe character. The figure just looks cool. They took the light grey/grey camo used on the viper and tele-viper and made it look even better. Add the accessories and this one is superb. If I had to choose an army builder instead of a character I'd go with the officer. Just the hint of yellow on the black uniform looks sharp. |

I went with the Viper. One of my favorite troopers to begin with, and his Python Patrol incarnation works very nicely, I believe. Most of the figures in the later set work well, though, with the possible exception of the SAW-Viper. Too much bright red. My least favorite would have to be the Crimson Guard, if for no other reason than dark red WAS a color available in that team, and he has the least amount of it. Weird sort of irony there. And I would personally like to applaud and salute anyone who's ever had the guts to customize a Python Patrol vehicle and has managed to do a decent job of it. |

I had the full set of figures as a kid, none of the vehicles. I remember being really excited about opening them all up. The Viper was the one I always wanted more of as a kid. I wasn't even really aware of the concept of army building back then, but I loved the way the black and red helmet looked with the grey uniform... just the right amount of yellow. I also really liked the way the Crimson Guard looked, though I agree with GITrekker in that it was an odd color choice for a figure still NAMED Crimson Guard. |
